Quotable
"You know what I call the guy who's DFL? A finisher!" Overhead at the back of the pack at Western States in 2009. It meant a lot more to me at the end than it did at mile 3 when I heard it.
"Hey were you DFL at Western States? So was I!" Some dude named Steve that I met at Umstead. He was DFL in 2006, I was DFL in 09.
Becky talking about the need for training partners, "It takes a village to run a 100-miler." June's reply, "Yeah, a village Idiot!" Priceless June Bug, priceless!
“We are not in a hurry anymore.” Roger to his crew as he entered Camp 10 Bear for the first time in the Vermont 100, Ouch! Darn evil doctors!
"Road Marathons Suck!" Words of wisdom from Professor ACG. Listen to him, he knows of what he speaks!
"It's slippery." From the dude lying on his back at the Alafia Trail 1/2, regarding the trail condition of the muddy downhill I was about to run. Thanks, now could you roll to the side.
"There is no Try, either Do or Do Not Do." Yoda. Ok, little man, that sounds like you have a Do-Do philosophy. There is no try may work for keeping the Dark Force at bay and saving an empire, but oh-great-wrinkled-one, we're talking about running 100 Miles. Now drop and give me 20, Mr. Jed-Eye!
To me, From an aid station volunteer at Ancient Oaks 100-mile trail run, "The difference is, You could do what I'm doing, I could never do what you are doing!"

The Tennessee Stud? Why, that'd be your nephew, Davis, who's a senior at the University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee!
This is better than dedicating Johnny's cover of "Hurt" to those running the AT100! I'm reading my M&B for inspiration. We'll miss you! (But those little kids at the aid stations probably won't...)
Ah, the heck with those kids! Pain the neck volunteers!
Thanks for the song- I'm hoping to redeem my Bihorn DNF, so hopefully the Arkansas mud won't slow me down! Appreciate your advice on shoes for the trail!
Scott, just keep on going, all the way through. Bighorn will make this seem like a little fun run with sis like when you were kids.
